Author JK Rowling Hits Back at Actor David Tennant and Brands Trans Activists with an Apt Nickname: ‘Gender Taliban’
The Gateway Pundit has extensively covered the attacks faced by Harry Potter author JK Rowling for daring to speak up for women.
Now, Rowling has weighed in on a very public spat between “Dr. Who” actor David Tennant and British equalities minister Kemi Badenoch.
Tennant was recently awarded the “2024 British LGBT Award” and took a very public swing at those who want to protect women and girls.
Tennant said while accepting the award, “Until we wake up and Kemi Badenoch doesn’t exist anymore…I don’t wish ill of her, I just wish her to shut up. Whilst we do live in this world, I am honored to receive this.”
Badenoch, who believes the science of biology and that men claiming to be women should stay out of women’s sports, responded to Tennant on X.
“I will not shut up. I will not be silenced by men who prioritise (sic) applause from Stonewall over the safety of women and girls. A rich, lefty, white male celebrity so blinded by ideology he can’t see the optics of attacking the only black woman in government by calling publicly for my existence to end…..”
“Tennant is one of Labour’s celebrity supporters. This is an early example of what life will be like if they win. Keir Starmer stood by while Rosie Duffield was hounded. He and his supporters will do the same with the country. Do not let the bigots and bullies win. (2/2)”

Rowling weighed in on the spat and coined a term for the transgender mob, calling them the “Gender Taliban.”
But the utterances of the Gender Taliban receive special dispensation, for they are a holy caste. https://t.co/LvaD7M8NO0

In an interview at the event, according to Deadline, Tennant said, “It’s a tiny bunch of little whinging f***ers who are on the wrong side of history, and they’ll all go away soon.”
Rowling shot back saying, “This man is talking about rape survivors who want female-only care, the nurses currently suing their health trust for making them change in front of a man, girls and women losing sporting opportunities to males and female prisoners incarcerated with convicted sex offenders.”

The Gateway Pundit has reported on the transgender community and their allies directing their rage against Rowling for the sin of expressing her personal opinions on transgender issues.
She took a public stand supporting researcher Maya Forstater after Forstater was let go from her job for making comments labeled as “transphobic.” Social Justice Warriors branded Rowling a “TERF,” which stands for “trans-exclusionary radical feminist,” for doing so.
She triggered the SJWs again for daring to “misgender” the person behind a Twitter account allegedly tied to Luis Morales, also known as Synthia China Blast, convicted of murdering a 13-year-old child in a racist gang attack.
The abuse she has been subjected to includes an attempt to dox one of her children.
Except it wasn’t one of her children. It was an innocent mother with young children and no affiliation with Rowling.
